[ :3c ]

Getting old is so sad.

[shaft]

I'm only 23...

[guestservices]

Really? I could've sworn you were older.

[ they're like clearly teasing, though, if their tone is any indication. ]

[shaft]

[ sniffs ]

I guess I do have a roguish, debonair demeanour...

[guestservices]

[ help ]

Or a beard.

[shaft]

Is the beard really so prominent? It's normal for guys my age where I come from.

[ why do people keep mentioning it ]

[guestservices]

When you say "guys my age", you sound even older.

[ they are almost definitely just fucking with claude now if the mischief in their voice is any indication. ]

[shaft]

I guess... I'm just old on the inside.

[ sometimes you have no serotonin

looks at them ]

How's your tolerance?

[guestservices]

[ hehe. they pat him on the back like there, there.

at the question, though, they cock their head, birdlike. ]

Very, very good. Why?

[shaft]

[ VAX? ]

... Just curious.

[guestservices]

[ who? ]

I like to drink. Is yours bad?

[shaft]

It's fine. I don't drink very often.

I'm surprised you'd relax so easily.

[guestservices]

I'm a relaxed kind of bird.

[ they prop their chin in their hand. ] Or, maybe that's what I want you to think.

[shaft]

I'd believe it's the latter.

[ hmph ]

No hard feelings about was wandering into your lounge, by the way?

[guestservices]

[ hmmmmm. they take a sip of their drink. ]

What're you going to do to make it up to me?

[shaft]

[ He lifts up a hand. ]

Share some hot goss.

[guestservices]

[ spoon i thought this was a gag tag

anyway ]

Some - oh. Gossip, huh.



[ despite that reaction they immediately prop their chin in their hand and: ] Let's hear it.

[shaft]

[ you doubt me? ]

Mikazuki and Tsurumaru are dating.

[guestservices]

[ wow ]

That's all you got? You could see that from a thousand li away. Miles away.
